< Ecclesiastes 4:13 >

13 A young man who is poor but wise is a better person than a foolish old king who refuses to pay attention when people try to give him good advice.
Mieux vaut un jeune homme pauvre, mais intelligent, qu’un roi vieux et stupide, incapable même d’accueillir encore des conseils.
